Changes in Soil Aggregate Carbon Components and Responses to Plant Input during Vegetation Restoration in the Loess Plateau, China.

ABSTRACT: Vegetation restoration is an effective measure to cope with global climate change and promote soil carbon sequestration. However, during vegetation restoration, the turnover and properties of carbon within various aggregates change. The effects of plant source carbon input on surface soil and subsurface soil may be different. Thus, the characteristics of carbon components in aggregates are affected. Therefore, the research object of this study is the Robinia pseudoacacia forest located in 16-47a of the Loess Plateau, and compared with farmland. The change characteristics of organic carbon functional groups in 0-20 cm, 20-40 cm, and 40-60 cm soil layers were analyzed by Fourier near infrared spectroscopy, and the relationship between the chemical structure of organic carbon and the c
